I don't think so - I'll check tonight.

Yes. It's assigned by DHCP. dhcpd on the 192.168.1.x network:
option netbios-name-servers 192.168.1.5;
And by the linksys router on the 192.168.4.x network.
> All the 192.168.1 machines have a route to 192.168.4 ?
Yes. There's a static route in the Cisco.
From dude (192.168.1.5) :
[root at dude maildrop]# traceroute 192.168.4.147
traceroute to 192.168.4.147 (192.168.4.147), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets
1 WRT54GS_external (192.168.1.4) 1.100 ms 0.665 ms 0.636 ms
2 192.168.4.147 (192.168.4.147) 1.203 ms 1.238 ms 1.193 ms
Any other ideas? This is really p***ing me off!!
